Inclusive Education
Inclusion - all people should freely
accommodate the disabled without any
restriction or condescension in activities
Inclusive education- all students attend and are
welcomed by their neighborhood schools in
age- appropriate regular classes and are
supported to learn, contribute and participate
in all aspects of school life (Inclusion BC)
All children benefit from inclusive education.
Edgardo F. Garcia
Deafblindness
Deafblindness concomitant hearing and
vision impairments, the combination of which causes
severe communication and other developmental and
educational needs that cannot be accommodated in
programs solely for blind or deaf
